PREVIOUS PERFORMANCES
Rick Halisheff
July 24th, 2021
You may know Rick as "Poppa Dawg", as he brings his music to folks around the Okanagan. This outdoor performance provided a unique up-close-and-personal opportunity to soak up Rick's original songs and cover tunes that make us feel great!
Claudia Russell and Bruce Kaplan
January 26, 2020 Claudia and Bruce were very personable and clearly have been in the business for a few years. Musically - you could describe it as "Americana" with a "folksy" and "bluegrass" bent. We have always had great admiration for the singer-songwriter type. The approach of telling the story/stories behind songs was very enjoyable.
It was Bruce's first-ever performance in Canada. Welcome, Bruce.
Brent Mason
